The tractor remote for the block heater is working along with the lights I use as a tell tale. Not all that sure about the Dodge, the battery was flat ( I have spares brand new) on the hand held part and it is too bright out there now to check it.

BEF, flys are attracted to blue light, also to the CO2 we put out.

I haven't had my Nikko system fired up since I fried the last set of speakers 20 years ago. 2 Nikko Alpha 230 amps, 1 Nikko Beta 30 pre-amp , 1 Nikko EQ, Nikko NT 950 tuner and a Luxman tape deck.
I listen to Sirius-XM on a little table top boom box. I've got an outside antenna set up 25' in the air on the TV tower we don't use anymore. In the Dodge I have a chip card with most of my music on it.
Music for me is a w i d e range of stuff, from all over the map.
The rest of today is the tube rabbit hole.

This is in a room we don't usually use. Terrible infestation, hundreds and hundreds of flies all around the window. Window is shut. we have vacuumed them several times. Never happened before like this. There is no food or anything in the room. Must have been eggs layed somewhere.

69°F and no rain

No coffee, no breakfast this morning.

Health exam at primary care this morning. Asked for annual physical but don’t think that’s what I’ll get. Likely the Medicare wellness BS. We are fasting and hoping for the proper blood test, but appoint is just before lab closes for lunch. Plan is to return home then drive to Hilo and visit lab before Happy Hour

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

The life span of a house fly is 30 days. In that 30 days they can lay thousands of eggs.
Amazon sells a product that will stick on to the window glass and the flys are attracted to it. They stick to the product and die.
Amazon.com
It works. I use it too.
I used amazon.com just for you. I use the same product only from .ca

Took the truck to go to town today for shingles vac. That 6.7 diesel is just so powerful compared to the van and have to tread lightly not to squeal tires

Cleaned some more out in the area with electrical supplies and dug out a Fluke meter that I likely will not need for process calibrations. But it can be used for other measurements.

Ken, yes will let you know however she got an attack of GERD that is confining her at the moment

Mostly he is not married and his son's mother died a few years ago

The leaves are turning and falling around the property even though we have not had frost yet

 

[buckeyefarmer]

We have had several frosty mornings on this side of the county.
mixed up the fly spray, and they are falling.... Wife reminded me there is a hole in the screen. I had to really look to find it.

Good Afternoon to all who celebrate! Apologies for my late posting, however work demanded my attention in another location for most of the morning today. Currently 78 and sunny going to a high of 79. No frost when I left this morning.

I can finally report that the snow pusher is set up, and no steel will contact the new seal coat this winter. Bring on the snow! I might need a box blade or weight box on the 3-point when I try that job...hmmm...do I behave or buy? impact worked perfectly, a lot of hit in those little electric ones!

Went to use the grapple for the first time since it took a little spill. Wowee did I futz with that! My back still hurts from trying to force the hoses on. Found out that during it's fall, it loosened the U bolt holding the tractor side male and female connectors so there wasn't anything pushing back against me. A couple twists with a 9/16th wrench and click click! At least nothing seriously damaged, just my pride and some sweat.

No plans this week except to survive the workweek.

I'm enjoying the fall pictures all!

Be safe out there y'all and have a wonderful week!

M7040 - loved Kyoto, we went off the beaten path a bit and talked to some locals

Wish I could have spent some time there. When visiting it was for business and was hosted everywhere but I dealt with the major Japanese suppliers for years and got to know some of the people really close. They were very reliable and delivered what was promised

Good Afternoon! we have reached our high of 84˚F, not a cloud in the sky, very dry. Planted two sage bushes, two to go.

The "adventure" farm texted me wanting me to work through Christmas, I told them I would but very part time.

PT went well can do a little more each day.

Wife voted early at the neighborhood center and a lady had come from the grocery store which is also a place to vote and said the line was wrapped around the store. After PT I stopped to vote but by then our lines were 50 people long outside the door. Stopped by 2 hours later and sill a long line, I'll vote early in the morning.
Does everyone have long early voting lines?
By 2 pm today 137,000 people have voted early in Texas
